Seems my beloved, simple, and easy M$ Movie Maker doesn't install on my Windows 10 machine... so looking for a similar program that is easy and quick to use, to throw in a few clips, trim them down, put a title and done... any suggestions? Prefer free, but willing to pay a little.

Windows 10 Creators Update is out in a couple of weeks, but I don't know that it has anything like that either. A lot of people were rightly ticked when they dumped that nice program.

I didn't know they were ending support for Live Movie Maker. That's unfortunate. Hope they have something new coming.

Did you look in the Win 10 app store? I see a few, some free, some cheap that look similar to WMM. At least you would know the download is a safe one coming through the store.

According to Office Watch the last version of Windows Movie Maker works with Windows 10:

Quote:

Windows Movie Maker is still available

An expanded version of this article is online at Office-Watch.com

Windows Movie Maker is a simple and free video editor from Microsoft. Officially it's no longer available but it's still available if you know the magic spell.

Earlier this month we explained how to get the much-loved Office Picture Manager even though it's been officially removed from Office.

Movie Maker was part of Windows Essentials, a package of free programs from Microsoft. Most of them are either defunct (Messenger) or superceded (Editor), only Movie Maker still has a place.

As a simple video editor, Windows Movie Maker is great. You can put together video clips, add captions, audio, titles and end credits. Various effects, animations and transitions are available.

Use WMM to make a short video for insertion into a PowerPoint presentation.

Windows Movie Maker 2012 works fine on Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 7.

End quote.


I can't verify this as I'm using 7/ 8.1 but it is available as part of the Windows Essentials 2012 package here:

Hope this helps.
